Tips
Visually really impressive. A good place to take a break for family trips. There is a playground right next to the bike.

Imposing Hessian cultural monument!
With a diameter of almost 10 meters, the "Schwalheimer Wheel" is one of the largest historical water wheels in Germany!
Also very impressive: the 170 meter long wooden pole (the original length was 1,300 meters) 👌😎

If you want space to take photos, you should come by in the morning. In the afternoon, the "sunny side" of the bike is only visible from the lane between the bike and the house next to it. From the other side you can see the whole bike, but this is in the shade in the afternoon.
